What it is Racefood Date & Cranberry - Farbar
A 30g pressed-fruit-and-butter bar made by Racefood, with dates as the primary ingredient and dried cranberries for tartness and texture. Each bar delivers around 19g of carbs and 569 kJ (136 kcal), with a small amount of fat and fibre alongside.
This is real-food fuel - chewable, satisfying, and easier on the palate than gels when you're hours into a session and tired of sweet liquids.
When to use it Racefood Date & Cranberry - Farbar
- Long training sessions over 90 minutes where you want something to chew
- Ultra-distance events where palate variety matters
- Pre-session fuel 15-30 minutes before starting
- Hiking, cycling, and adventure events where pocket-sized real food beats gels
How to use it Racefood Date & Cranberry - Farbar
Eat one bar 15-30 minutes before a session, or every 30 minutes during longer efforts. At 19g of carbs per bar, you'd need roughly 3 per hour to hit 60g/hr - in practice most athletes pair these with a drink mix or gels rather than relying on bars alone for carb intake.
Chew thoroughly and wash down with water or a drink mix to aid digestion during exercise.
